Dear all,

I'm trying to do phonon calculations as was done in the second response function tutorial.
My calculation seems to get bogged down in the D/DK non-scf calculation.  tolwfrs is set to 1.0d-22 and the band residuals in the log file seem to be compliant with this except for the upper 2 bands....but I thought nbdbuffer should be automatically set to 2 and take care of this.

so why does the calculation not declare convergence?   I've posting the input file and the band residuals.   am I looking at the right this to determine if convergence should be reached?   thankyou.
